Despite the heat the green walls around the city are surviving well, a testament to a good trickle irrigation system and excellent choice of plants used. I am the trickle system in my garden, the reticulation deals with the lawn and flower beds but I prefer to water my pots by hand, they are a bit like friends.. I like to keep an eye on them to see that they're doing ok :) The green wall here in Cathedral Square outside the City of Perth Library. Below my stylish new footwear for the next few weeks, tres chic oui 😉That'll teach me to look where I'm going! Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe..
That green wall is quite a sight to see.
ReplyDeleteTres stylish!
I've seen only a couple of "green walls" here in the desert. With our hot, hot summers, the plants have to be chosen very carefully. Love the new footwear. Very stylish.
ReplyDeleteHope it heals quickly, Grace.
ReplyDeleteThe green wall is amazing.
Green wall is really nice. We need more green, vines, bushes, trees, to combat CO2. Greenery absorbs CO2 and emits O2.
ReplyDeleteHope your foot heal and you get out running about.
...I've seen green walls before, but nothing like this one.
ReplyDeleteThe few green walls I have seen here have been inside.
ReplyDeleteSuch a classy black shoe they gave you! So sorry for you, Grace.
Naughty Grace! 😅
ReplyDeleteYou must be careful! Otherwise Santa Claus will not visit you! LOL
Have fun with your new shoe and get well soon!
The green walls are gorgeous!
Hugs!
I Would Like To See Some Battery Powered Lights Around That New Boot - Or At Least Spray Paint That Sucker - Be Well
ReplyDeleteCheers
P.S. Love The Vertical Growing Space
What an amazing green wall, I like it.
ReplyDeleteIs this new boot fashion for this year? :)
I hope you'll be back to normal in walking mode soon.
On no that foot wear is not what you needed, take care Diane
ReplyDeleteIt's me again. I just read the article that the New York Times 52 Places Traveler wrote about Perth and I thought I'd share it with you. So many of the places he mentions feel familiar to me through your wonderful words and pictures. I subscribe to the NY Times and for the past two years, they've had one reporter each year travel to all the places on the newspaper's list of places to visit that year. It's a job I would have loved when I was much younger. So I read every article and follow on Instagram. When I saw that Perth was on his list, I waited for him to visit there. It's a great article. I hope you enjoy it. His year of traveling is coming to an end. I wonder who will get to do that job next year.

There is a wll like that over near the church in Henley on Thames
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll be ok soon. Take care of you and beware the gumnuts
ReplyDeleteVery attractive new shoes. I've seen many garden walls go terribly wrong, but the one you show seems to be thriving. I expect correct and monitored irrigation is the key.
ReplyDeleteBless your dear Paw. Time to be carried around like Cleopatra
ReplyDeleteGood to have friendly plants around and water them regularly. Hope your new footwear helps you heal quickly.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your tootsie! I hope it's not a bad break & you're back to normal soon.
ReplyDeleteThat wall is really fabulous.
I've always wondered what happens if weeds move in on a garden like that. Do they have to get a ladder to do the weeding?
ReplyDeleteWe somewhere have moss-walls, but I never saw one.
ReplyDeleteAnd... so sad... I had to let go of Miss Mango. So much for the choice of plants, she could not take the wooden floor that ate up all humidity.
And, yes, Grace, she was a bit like a friend...
Oh, shoot, broken after all?! Get well soon and yay for these shoes, right!
In fact yours looks much fancier than mine did, you can pass as astronaut! ;-)
Looks like a treatment by dr Frankenstein.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful green wall. Hope you recover soon Grace.
ReplyDeleteOh, poor you! That will be uncomfortable to walk around like this. The greenwall looks beautiful, ingenius system for watering. Wish you all the best with your horror foot!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wall.
ReplyDeleteLove the vertical garden!!
